A UK primary school has been forced to suspend its LGBT lessons after 600 pupils were reportedly taken out of classes by furious parents.
The mainly Muslim parents said they were furious that homosexuality was being “aggressively” taught to their children.
Parkfield Community School in Birmingham, England, has now suspended its ‘No Outsiders’ classes until after Easter, while a consultation takes place with parents.

RT reports: Tensions between the school and parents have escalated due to a row surrounding LGBT lifestyles being taught in classrooms.
The ill-feeling from angry parents has even boiled over into threats against the assistant headteacher Andrew Moffat MBE, who is gay. He claims to have received “nasty emails” including one which warned he “wouldn’t last long.”
The primary school, which has around 740 pupils, is located in a predominantly Muslim area. It has come under fire from Muslim parents for implementing an LGBT programme which seeks to challenge homophobia, because homosexuality is strictly forbidden in Islam.
According to Alum Rock Community Forum, children were removed from classes over the school’s “undermining of parental rights and aggressively promoting homosexuality.”
The forum added that despite repeated petitions, protests and dialogue instigated by parents, they have been “arrogantly ignored.”
In a letter to parents, the trustee board of Excelsior Multi Academy Trust, which runs the school, confirmed lessons would be halted until the end of April.
Moffat had been piloting the programme, which had been running in parallel with sex and relationship education (SRE) lessons.

Go figure if it was christian parents they would be charge with some crime.
..or fined for removing their child from school !
well if this is one way of getting this mooslum scum to leave the country then, bring in more gay freak sh*t
Certain lessons don’t need to be taught. Instead of teaching not to gay this and black that, teach to judge humans by their souls and teach that intercourse is a delicate spiritual act, not a chemical-chasing material one. Then no one will care about orientation and no one will be pressured to be straight and hide their identities and personalities.
